Explore Our Post Workout Supplements
Our post workout collection includes products with different formulations and intended uses.
Post Workout Recovery Drinks
Post workout shakes can provide a convenient combination of protein and other nutritional ingredients after exercise. Depending on the formula, they may also contain carbohydrates and electrolytes.
They can be particularly convenient when you want a ready-to-mix option immediately after training.
Daily Joint & Mobility Supplements
Some products in the wider recovery category are designed for regular daily use rather than specifically for immediately after exercise. These may contain ingredients such as collagen, glucosamine, MSM or turmeric.
Check the individual product instructions for the recommended serving and timing.
Who Are Post Workout Supplements For?
Post workout supplements can be used by people who train regularly and want a convenient way to organise their nutrition after exercise.
They may be particularly useful for people who prefer a dedicated post-training drink or supplement rather than relying solely on food immediately after a workout.
The most suitable option depends on your training routine, dietary requirements and the ingredients you want to include.
Post workout supplements should complement a varied and balanced diet rather than replace normal meals.
When Should You Take Post Workout Supplements?
Post workout supplements are generally intended for use after exercise, although the recommended timing varies between products.
After training: A post workout shake can be prepared and consumed after your session as part of your normal nutrition routine.
With a meal: Some supplements are designed for use with food. Follow the individual product's recommended serving instructions.
Daily supplements: Products intended for regular daily use should be taken according to their specific instructions rather than being limited to training days.
There is no single timing routine that applies to every post workout supplement, so always check the product packaging.
Why Use Post Workout Supplements?
Convenient Post Training Nutrition
A post workout supplement can provide a convenient option when you want something quick and easy to prepare after exercise.
Protein & Carbohydrates
Some post workout formulas combine protein with carbohydrates. Protein contributes to the growth and maintenance of muscle mass and the maintenance of normal bones, while carbohydrates can form part of your overall nutritional intake.
Electrolytes
Some post workout products contain electrolytes such as sodium, potassium or magnesium. Check the nutritional information to see which electrolytes are included in your chosen product.
Simple Supplement Routines
Combining several nutritional ingredients into one product can make your post workout routine straightforward and convenient.
Post Workout Supplements & Your Training Routine
Post workout supplements can form part of a wider approach to sports nutrition alongside supplements used before and during training.
Depending on your routine, you may also want to explore our Pre Workout Supplements, Intra Workout Supplements, Creatine Monohydrate Supplements and Amino Acids Supplements categories.
Each category has a different purpose and product formulation, so consider the ingredients and recommended use of each supplement before combining products.
